6 characters on Ebon Hawk, most rep 2 imp... the community on that server is perhaps one of the more friendly and even between factions there is more times than not people who will help you out in mixed zones even though the game is designed to try and drive a wedge between factions.
That is to say a rep and an imp can work together but have to resort to the /say commands because whispers/general/ and other forms of communication wont work cross fction
classes ARE pretty well balanced though despite our tech troll...factions however are not. Most servers have a 2:1 imp/rep population which I feel is the only real failure that was showing it's head in beta and has yet to be touched on:
That is to say gear " looks" crappy on the rep side while most of the imperial armour sets are rather nice looking- is one of the factors. Sith also seem to have a larger population though of " omg Im so cool and elite and badass hardcore!" types too.
what that means? open world pvp is lopsided and sucks for the Rep to deal with, however when it comes to war zones imps have longer queues and quite often get forced into hutt ball rather than other faction vs faction zones...where as republic does not have that issue.
